I've always been fond of writing nonfiction pieces, leaning into the ability to bring truth to light in creative and vulnerable ways. Memoirs, lyric essays, and creative essays are a comfort to write, and I plan to maintain this dedication to looking inward, while gathering applicable research, to inspire others to take time for introspection and making peace with the quirky things that bring us together and make us human.

In this comedic memoir, we follow a young Alexandra being traumatized by the happy clown at her fourth birthday party, and the wake of her rising anxiety in years to come.
I'd Like to Get to Know Her
A fragmented combination of lyric essays that can be read together or individually; touching on womanhood, life, death, and belonging.
Have You Ever Been to the Great Barrier Reef?
This piece uses elements of cultural journalism with immersive characterization and plot to combine research about the loneliness epidemic through the poetic lens of strangers embracing spontaneity together. Specifically, we follow an Australian man's fateful run-in with a group of adventurers that will change the course of his life forever.
